After a somewhat disappointing apprenticeship in the French countryside, Lauren Shockey hatched a plan for her dream year: to apprentice in four kitchens around the world. Starting in her hometown of New York City, where she worked under the famed chef Wylie Dufresne, she then headed to Vietnam, Israel and back to France. Each setting presenting its own set of challenges, from language barriers to stronger-than-usual resistance to a woman in a professional kitchen.
